    120gr projectiles flatten deer out to 200m in 6.5x55's, with gentle recoil. Shouldnt be any different in the PRC, and probably better I'd wager.

    You might also try what seem like ridiculous 'jumps' to the lands. Many a 6.5, I've owned over the years, has liked up to 2mm. I noticed this particularly with long throat-leads, but even...
